Der 32-jährige Künstler Matt Stokes, der im Mai den mit 20k£ dotierten "Beck's Futures" Preis gewonnen hat, wird zum Edinburgh Art Festival etwas nie dagewesenes präsentieren: Black Metal in Edinburgh's Usher Hall.
Der Künstler, der besonders daran interessiert ist Menschen zusammen zu bringen, hatte mit Musikern verschiedener Club-Szenen und Mitgliedern des Royal College of Organists drei zeitgenössische Musikrichtungen für die klassische Kirchenorgel umgesetzt: Northern Soul, Happy Hardcore und Black Metal. Dieses Projekt wird nun am 24. August zum ersten Mal live präsentiert werden.
Stokes: I was interested in the contrast between the organists and their musical background, and the members of (Edinburgh metal club) Fimbulvetr and their musical background, coming from completely opposite ends of the spectrum. I wanted to try putting them together and see what comes out of that. The metal was the most problematic because there's not really a strong melody, it's more about intensity. The organist had to find ways of creating big dynamic changes through the registration of the instrument. When it is being performed the organist says that he's going to the point where the instrument is literally almost running out of air.
